Hi @jhkh1118, thank you for posting for the first time, and welcome to the Zoom Community!

 

Open your Zoom application, select your profile picture in the top right-hand corner, and then go to Settings > Accessiblity. From here unselect the screen reader alerts you would like to turn off. 

 

To disable sound notification for meetings:

  1. Sign in to the Zoom web portal.
  2. From the navigation panel, select Account Management then Account Settings.
  3. Click the Meeting tab.
  4. To disable Sound notification when someone joins or leaves, unselect the toggle. 

 

As a final step, please log out and back in to the Zoom app. 

I hope this helps!
Carla,

I just started getting the audio notifications for everything, and the instructions here didn't help. I turned everything off, tried toggling on & off again, closed Zoom and logged out, but no luck. I'm always getting the voiceover advising about screen sharing. 

There are a number of different posts on the web about this issue from the last couple of weeks. Any idea what is going on and how to resolve it?

I am having the same issue. I have EVERYTHING turned off and still get the "You are connected to computer audio, you are connected to computer video" and goes on and on, and I can't hear people in the meeting talking until it's done.

I would like to know the answer to this as well.  Did you figure it out?
